Animate a single image or bring multiple visual references together in one video. Choose 540p to 4K, describe the action and camera movement, and enable audio when your scene needs sound.
Vidu Q4 is a video model developed by ShengShu Technology. Image-to-video turns one image into a 3–16 second clip, while reference-to-video combines 1–15 images into a 3–16 second clip. Optional audio and up to three voice references let you explore scenes in which appearance, movement and sound work together.
Choose the input workflow that fits your scene.
Start with one image or combine several references.
Use image-to-video to add camera movement and action to a product image, portrait or landscape. Choose reference-to-video when a scene needs several visual sources for subjects, style or setting. Describe one clear action and the intended camera movement so the scene has a readable focus.
Use references that contribute distinct information.
Image-to-video accepts one image and inherits its aspect ratio. Reference-to-video accepts 1–15 images; choose useful views and avoid contradictory appearances. You may add up to three MP3 voice references, each 3–12 seconds and no larger than 50 MB. Use recordings you have permission to upload.
Match the settings to the destination of your video.
Upload your source images, describe the action, and choose a resolution from 540p, 720p, 1080p, 2K or 4K. Single-image clips run 3–16 seconds; reference clips run 3–16 seconds with 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3 or 3:4 framing. Audio is optional and switched off by default. Review the current credit estimate before submitting.
Explore motion, atmosphere and optional synchronized sound.
Use the resulting clip as a scene in a social video, a product presentation or a visual storyboard. Higher resolution can suit a larger viewing surface, while a shorter clip helps you explore a focused action. When audio is enabled, review the image and sound together before deciding how the clip fits your project.
Check continuity, motion and any generated audio.
Watch the clip from beginning to end. Compare subject details with your references, look for changes in faces, hands or products, and check camera motion and scene transitions. If sound is enabled, listen for voice character, timing and unwanted audio. Reference identity and lip synchronization are not guaranteed; revise the input or description when needed.
Treat the clip as material for your final edit.
Download a result you want to keep, then trim it, arrange it with other shots and add captions or audio in your editor. Check the crop and legibility for the intended screen. Vidu Q4 does not establish commercial rights to your references, voices or generated content; confirm permissions and applicable terms before publication.
The two videos are official Vidu demonstrations. The three still images are original AI concept illustrations to help you prepare a scene; they are not Vidu Q4 outputs.
